Potato has mud on his face.
Potato has mud in his ears.
Potato needs a bath (just don’t get soap in his eyes!).
There is going to be a party and everyone is ready - except Potato.
Onion is practicing his guitar, Aubergine is wearing her new necklace and Peach is bouncing on the bed with excitement.
Potato needs a bath - but he has other ideas - because Potato loves mud!
A light-hearted, gentle and highly visual new show for 2 – 4 year olds featuring fruit, veg and original music.
Potato Needs a Bath was created with Shona Reppe and with music by Dave Trouton. It is aimed at children aged 2-4 years.
Potato Needs a Bath was first produced in 2009 and toured throughout Scotland. It has since performed at the New Victory Theater (New York) Imaginate Children's Festival (Edinburgh) Kopergeitery (Belgium), Baboro Festival (Galway) and the South Bank Centre (London). It has also performed in Montreal and Calgary and The Netherlands.
"a solo performance packed with vitamins M and F (Magic and Fun – essential to wellbeing!)" **** Mary Brennan, The Herald
"charmingly quirky show.....a tonne of inspired silliness to delight the nursery-aged patrons" Mark Brown, The Sunday Herald
"Shona Reppe’s juicy production for toddlers and preschoolers is ripe for the picking." ***** Beth Greenfield, Time Out New York
"Aimed primarily at 2-4 year olds, I defy anyone of any age not to be entertained by this; it was witty, clever and superbly performed." ***** Justine Blundell, The Edinburgh Guide Review
